TL;DR: Results suggest that several genetic markers have considerable potential for measuring human-associated contamination in polluted environmental waters, which will be helpful in water quality monitoring, pollution modeling and health risk assessment to guide target-oriented water safety management across the globe.
Population density and enzyme activities of heterotrophic bacteria in sewer biofilms and activated sludge
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assessed the activity of different wastewater biocenoses and determined the population density of heterotrophic saprophytes, polymer degrading bacteria, ammonifying bacteria as well as of nitrate reducers and denitrifiers.

Scum in Activated Sludge Plants: Impact of Non‐filamentous and Filamentous Bacteria
TL;DR: In this article, a biological characterization of scum based on microscopic sludge investigation of conspicuous microorganisms resulted in a significant shift of filamentous and non-filamentous organism populations with Gram-positive bacteria prevailing in present nutrient removal plants as compared to the situation ten years ago.

Vitamin addition in biological wastewater treatment
TL;DR: Vitamin supplementation is advertised in wastewater treatment to compensate for a deficiency of growth factors and thereby increase sludge activity and purification efficiency and Auxotrophy of bacteria isolates turned out to be compensated in most cases by vitamin producers in the activated sludge biocenoses.

Filamentous scum bacteria in activated sludge plants: detection and identification quality by conventional activated sludge microscopy versus fluorescence in situ hybridization.
TL;DR: Comparison of detection, identification, and quantification quality of filamentous “scum bacteria” found by conventional activated sludge microscopy and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and the enormous taxonomic variability within this group is compared.
